[From The "biatic Mirror of Feb. 11.] CAMP, 00CHAR, JAN. 23.-1 HUI now able to send you the particulars of .Major CLARKE'S IV . - fair With the Poidarees, in the following extract nom General Orders issued yesterday, and vu %vi I I see it has been no trifling business, and ire what contempt our Pindaree enemies are now held. The order is dated the 20i h—issued 221: " The Commandtr-in-Chief feels it inciimbent to publish to the army the de , aili of an attack made by Major CI oke, with the sth regiment of Bengal Native Cavulty, on the remains of the united l'indaree hordes of Kurreem Khan and Mohamed, early in the morning of the 13th January. " 7 be ability with which this affair 'vas con ducted is oo less conspicuous from the details be fore his Excellency, than from the brilliant re,ults which Cr) tied it. " It. a 1 ars that Major Clarke, after several hours' march, came within a shout dis!ance of the position in which he had ascertained that the ene my were res'iug ; but as this was still during the night, the Nlajor, with excellent judgment, re solved to deter the attack until there should be light enough to allow the discipline of his troop its full advantage ; and he 'acconhigly remained for three bolos in the vicinity of the enemy, with out being discovered. " At 5 o'clock the sth cavalry moved forward in two columos of halt squadrons, taking the Pin darees completely by s,liptise, and rowed them %vith the loss of heady 1000 killed. The pursuit was kept up for many unties with great effect, and the regiment then returned to 'Lieut.-Colonel Adam's camp, atter going a distance of 60 miles in 13 hours. " Such decided success could only have resulted from a happy combination of steady discipline and persevering gallantry; qualities for which the sth Native Cavalry kis always stood eminently conspicuo,,s. " The Commander-in-Chief desires that 'Major Clarke, Captain Kennedy, and every officer and soldier engaged, will aceupt Ilk acknowledgments and thanks tor their zealot's and successful exer tions on the prrsent occasion." There have been several other orders issued since I wrote, bit all of minor importance and interest to you. You shall now have the best pall o! them. On Tuesday there came out au order ot 11) , 16th, directing the transfer of his Majesty's 67th regiment flout Bengal to tile division of the liotehay army under Sir W. licit•. On the same day, one ot the 17th, directing a new corps of frontier horse to be raised for immediate service. The strength, establishment, allowances, &c. to be in all respects the sante as in the other corps of kohilla horse. Captain Sneyd, of the Ist la the cavalry, to command, and his brother, Lieut. Sneyd, of his Majesty's Bth dragoons, to he Ad jutant. Its the saute order, what •is of rather inure interest, the Ist and 3d brigade of cavalry are reported to be broken up from that date, and all staff appointments connected therewith to cease accordingly ; and yesterday Captain Fitz gerald, of the 6th cavalry, is us orders, as Persian laterpeter, and Extra Aide-de-Camp to the Com mander-in-Chief from the 7th January. This, 1 think, is the stint and substance of Isis Lordship's orders. Now for the other news of camp. On the 20th we heard that the Veishwa, with his whole army, had been gallantly beaten off, by about 550 of the Bombay army. He ►wade se veral attacks upon them, but in all was repulsed. Our loss was considerable, and among these se veral officers are included. One of our guns had got disabled and unmanageable, this the Peisbwa is reported to have been carried off on au elephant. We look forward with certainty to the army break ing up about the end ot the mouth. It is not likely to be,howeveroill the officer arrives with tlir treaty with Holkar, and be is yet about five marches Iron us. All the troops, it is said, are to go into canton • meats, excepting two or three battalions which go clown to General Marshall, with the battering train. TheSth, 13th, 24th, and 25th, are talked of for this duty. Twenty guns arc on the way from Shere-Ghur for the service, and the forts to be taken are said to be Ratghur and Sagur, both of them hill-forts and strong, but the former espe cially so. • They talk of introducing appointments by brevet into the army; and all the Officers are in big., spirits, and full of the advantages of which it will be productive. His Lordship is said to have found much difficulty in rewaroing merit on many occasions, and can only do it by giving a staff appointment, whi h retun - ves a man from the very situation in which he has made himself conspi cuous, and in which he is perhaps most calculated to shine. Captain Fitzgerald is an instance. Sir J. Malcolm is said to have been consulted op the subject, and to have given it his decided appro bation, and the measure is reported to have gone home for the consideration of the Direction, highly recommended by the Governor-General. It will have one great advantage., that of afford ing an opportunity for young and active men to hold commiands. A Court-Alartial sat yesterday on a private of the European Regiment, who shot a corporal of the saute corps the day before ; the poor mail died in the course of the day. The ball had passed through the lungs. the prisoner was tried tor mutiny, and found guilty, and is expected to be shot to•morrow ; he had been reprimanded on parade by his Officer, and threatened to be pu nished; on going home he loaded his piece, with the determination of shooting the Oftictr: three different times he %sent ro his teat, hut luckily did not find him; the corporal carne before and told him he was ordered to put him in confine ment ; he lowered his piece, and without the least appearance of passion, fired it at the poor man. WING AND SPIRIT ' fRADE , --GRERNOCK, Au- OUST 14.—We understand that the Lords COM missioners of his Majesty's Treasury, in answer 10 a pet i t i on from the Trade here, complaining of loss and inconvenience sustained through a 11116t10 derstanding between the Officers of Excise, as to the gauging of wine and spirits at importation, have desired the Commissioners 01 Customs and Excise to direct their Officers, in future, to adopt the mode practiced in England, which we are in formed is more favourable to the trade than that hitherto iu use here. DUKE AND DUCHTSS OF CLARENCE. UTRECHT, AUG. 12 ---Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of CLARENCE, and suite, arrived here last evening. Count Munster, who preceded them on their journey, had prepared the good Hollanders to expect them ; and when they came to the Hotel of the city of ,A, , twern, their carriages were surrounded by a .VASt COTIC011t•e of people, anxious to see 'he mother of u 4 tn ture Sovereign of England. Tile Duke, with his usual good humour, conversed freely ,ith he broad-bottomed natives, and the ILchess seemed pleased with their acelimations I. is the inten tion of their Royal Highnesses to r,side for the present in a palace assigned to them by the l'i ince Regent at Hanover ; but in certain events, the accouchement of the Duchess or the death of the Queen, they will return to England. Their Royal Highnesses propose !o travel a good deal in Ger many, and the first journey of the Duke from Hanover will he to Aix-la-Chapelle in October next, when the grand Congress will be assembled. The Duke and Duchess, with their suite, quitted Utrecht this morning, at nine o'clock. They go through Westph,lia to Osnabruck, Deventer and Hanover. His Royal Highness is attended by hi s . domestic Physician, and appears in excellent health. The Duchess is not pretty in the face, but her figure is goof.. As we are now drawing our delightful tour to a clo•e, I must refer for the present particulars re lating to Cartel, and the lovely country by which it is surrounded, as well as the vile and miserable and inhospitable towns we .passed through in Westphalia, fammis for hams, and certainly well suited to hogs. GiPerland is. no better ; but Arnheim is a tine Dutch town, full of comfort. A more filthy people, and 11 conntrF in a snore wretched state, scarcely exist, as I should !rink, and as is confirmed to me by one of my experienc ed companions, than the North of Germany, and especially the neighbourhood of Hamburgh.

GRAND BALL Xr BOULOGNE. BOULOGNE, AUGUST 15.—This place is now crowded to an unexampled degree. On thePßtNce 11 GENT'S Birth-day a superb Ball was given, un der the auspices of Lord and Lady EDWARD So. MERSET, by the English to the French. Tie Theatre was engaged for the pnrpo►se. The interior was formed into a spacious saloon, by means of a platform erected over the pit. About 500 persons attended. The spacious area was il luminated by chandeliers of cut glass arid varie gated latnps. Dancing commenced at ten o'clock with " The White Cockade." Q•tadrilles, waltzes, and reels followed. All the Officers of the British Staff were present. Every respectable inhabitant of the town was invited. The tables wen kid out with infinite taste, great judgment, and infinite cost. Nothing could excel the macnificence of the whole ; the company felt it lie, rtiriness arid conviviallty reigned throughout ; and one feeling of happi ness, mirth, and e,ood hornour prevailed. The assembly did nor break un !ill five o'clock. " The Herald of the Blended Rose'' ushered in the fete. Frid.ay next is the day of St. Louis. when the French menu to return the compliment. The greatest preprations are already going on. His Excellency Mr GALL kTI ATINISSRdOr of the United States to his Most Christian Majesty, appointed to siegociate a Commerc'al Treaty be tween the United States nod Great Britain, ar rived at the London Hotel, Albemarle•street, ,on Sunday last. The Board for the Investigation of the Claims of British Subjects on the Government of France, which has been established at Paris since the year 1814, is now transferred to London. The Com ►nissioners occupy the house in Parliament -street, which was lately the Transport Office. '1 he Bishop of Oxroan, a few days ago, conse crated, in behalf of the Bishop of DURHAM, three n e w churches and a chapel of ease, in the dis trict of Northumberland, which a few years ago composed the extensive parish of Simonbutn, now divided into six. The livings are in the gift of the Admiralty, the Incumbents of which are to be selected from the Chaplains of the Navy. The Sub-Committee of New Drury have deter mined, it seems, at all hazards, to re-open the Theatre for the Winter campaign. Mr. STEPHEN KEMBLE is actively preparing his troops to take the field in great dramatic force.—(illorningPapar.) Miss STEPHENS performs, during her engage ment at the Dublin Theatre, tour times a week, and attracts numerous audiences. SINCLAIR, Mr. and Mrs. EGERTON, and DEN NI NO, have proved dramatic magnets at the Glou cester Theatre. GUILDFORD Asstzss.—Tbe whole of the capi tal convicts at these Assizes, 32 in number, 'h ive arrived at the Gaol in Horsemonger-lane, all of whom have been reprieved, except William West, tor forgery, and putting off various counterfeit bank notes, William Cook, for a burglary, clod William Park, for a like offence, who are left for execution. The several other prisoners, for minor offences, have been removed to the different prisons, to undergo their various punishment s, pursuant to the sentence of the Court. SVEIDEN DR ATlA.—Yestv Jr thy Mr. Wm.TAki.oft, a painter and glazier in the Walworth-ruad,:while taking his tea with his family, in perfect...health, heaved a deep sigh and tell dead on the -floor. He was a middle-aged man. THE GRAND DUKE MICHAEL'S TOUR. On the Bth inst. at heels'.' o'clock, his I nperial. Highness left Edinbargh, highly delighted itls that fine city. On nis Impend, HOiness' tray front- Edintiorgh, he went through Leith Rose berry's Perks, and also Lord Hopetonh's; changed horses a; Linlithgow, from thence to that exten,ive establishment the Carrot. Lori iVoriis, by Falkirk, where rite Grand Duke express ed much surprise at th tnagni; ode or those Works. Afterwards the Grand Duke dine.] at the Crown Inn, Falkirk, and proceet!ett to Stir liug, and was there met Oy an escort, as a guard of honour, consisting of one officer and fifty non comMisioned officers and privates of the Ist Royal aegoons, at the once-famed spot where the Battle of Bannockburn was fought between the Scots . aod English. His Impertal Htgliness slept at the, Golden Lion, Stirling. On the 9th, at eleven o'clock, he went to :re the Castle, and was received by General Graham, and Staff, upon the Castle-hill, who con tuered his Imperial Highness to the Castle, upon entering vel.;ch, a royal salute was fired, and they were received by a guard of honour of the 40th Regiment. His Imperial Higionvss observed this was the finest view he had ever seen, and supposed there was none to surpass it in the world, it be ing such an eNte.)s v, view at hills, dells, water, wood, corn•fields, &c. At one o'clock the Grand Duke left Stirling for Perth ; on his way he went to Drioninond Castle, and there p,trtook of some refreshment ; this is an extensive and beautirOl place, formerly the seat of the Earl of Perth, now of Mr. Burrell Di oni mond—the family was not at home ; here his Im perial Highness was presented with the sword wore by Robert Bruie in the Battle of Bannock burn ; this sword is as much as a power nil man can well hold with both hands, the blade being five fret long. The Grand Duke left there, and arrived at tin George Inn, at Perth, at 9 o'clock, where he was received by a guard of honour of the SBth regiment Ills Imperial Highness was to proceed front there to Donkeld. HOP IN'I ELLIGENCE. MainsTONE, Auo. 17.—Nothing can exceed the grandeur and beauty of the Hop-gardens about here ; in all directions they promise a luxu riant and abundant crop ; tit some grounds they hang in such clusters that they have the appear ance of rich canopies extendiug from pole to pole. The Flops have scarcely, it ever, been known to grow to such an amazing size as they ate the present season, many of them being upwards of three inches in length, and have every prospect of being still larger if permitted to hang. Some of the Planters talk of beginning to pick the latter end of this week, but it is the general opinion, that if they are allowed to remain sonic days longer, it will give the plant time to mature its fruit, and render both quality and quantity mach bet er ; and to the latter the Planters ought to turn their aatention, as it is the quantity that will expel Foreign Hops from. our market. It is ex pected that the duty will pay 130,0001. In our last we mentioued the malignity of some persons in cutting a quantity of hop bites at Be. nenben and other places, and we arc now sorry to state, that riming ihe last week a similar spirit has been exercised in a garden at Horsmooden, where upwards of 300 hills were destroyed, be longing to Messrs. Monekton. An act so base and detestable no one can escape from, where pro perty lies exposed to the mercy of villains, whose acrimony is probably excited by a spirit of re venge, or envy at others good fortune ; he that plunders a wealthy neighbour, gains as much as he takes away, and improves his own condition, in the same proportion as he Impairs anuther's ; hut he that does such malicious acts as these, can hoart of a gratifi,mtian so small as to afford very little consolation to balance the guilt by which it is obtained.—( Maidstone Journal, Aug. 18.) COR)T-EXCHANGE, AUG. I9.—There is no 31- teration in the Wheat Market this morning ; Oats are 11111 :is clear as on Monday; Beans 2s. dearer; Barley full as dear ; in Pease, Malt, &c. there is no alteration. FURTHER IKCREAsE oI TRAD6.—The value of exports from the port of Liverpool, bet►veen the sth of April and the sth of July, 1818, exceeds that of the corresponding quarter of 1817, by more than 550,0001. IMPORTANT RECIPE.—(From an American Paper.) A man in Oliver -street, New York, after impru dently drinking cold water, was seized with very alarming symptoms, from which lie was relieved by Dr. JOHN DE ALTON WHITE, who dissolved half an ounce of camphor in a gill of brandy ; of this, three parts were made and given at intervals of three minutes, which soon gave the patient relief. DESPERATE HIGHWAY ROBBPRY. Monday night last, about half past eleven o'clock, as Mr. Kellett), of Denmark-passage, in the Strand, was returning home with his daughter, after spending the previous part of the evening with a patty of friends in the Edgware-road, as they were pro ceeding along a dismal part of Park lane, a fel low came up and stopped them. Miss Keneth, on running into the road, was caught bold of by another villain, who was before unseen. The vil lains demanded the whole of their property, threatening at the same time to murder them both if they met with a refusal, or the slightest resist ance. Two other fellows stood at some distance from them, as if to give an alarm if necessary. Mr. Keneth, for the safety of himself and his daughter, gave all he had about him, and his daughter followed his example. Their booty con• sisted of a watch, a mit-pound note, some silver, and the female's scarf. They then left them, threatening their lives if they gave the least alarm. The remains of the Earl or SA:s:D7rlcn were conveyed from town on Monday morniug, for interment this day at Barnevill, in Huntingdon shire, where the family vault is situated. The mournful cavalcade consisted of pages on horse hack, the coronet borne on a cushion, a plume of feat hers, heArse and six horses, two mow ning coaches and six all decorated with escutcheons, ant i a train of Gentlemen's carriages.
